This unique publication presents to the reader an exceptional collection of some 450 examples of the finest handmade woodwork of the twentieth century. Almost 200 designer-makers are represented, providing a gallery of superbly crafted work including furniture, sculpture, turnery, gazebos and conservatories, toys and automata, musical instruments, decorative boxes, marquetry, and other wood ware such as carved love spoons, lace bobbins and jewelry. Thumb-nail sketches give penetrating insights into the designers' philosophies to their work and aspirations for the future. Through the text one becomes aware of the very real dedication, care, and concern this rare breed of craftsmen have between them, not only for their own satisfaction of knowing that they are producing fine quality work but also for us - their customers - that we are getting the best in craftsmanship and design. This is an important work of reference for interior designers, homemakers and all wood enthusiasts, as well as a delightful book to read or browse through at leisure. To complete the book a list of designer-makers' names and addresses appears in the index. Illustrated in colour and black and white.

Craft is at the very heart of British identity, from stained-glass windows in country churches to the Enid Blyton charm of thatched houses; from Harris Tweed® (famously poached by Coco Chanel) to the ceremonial livery worn by horses at Buckingham Palace. The burgeoning of digital craftsmanship is also enriching ground-breaking technologies, including microbial weaving and bespoke-made vessels for growing human tissue. Craft Britain brings together watchmakers with saddlers; bell casters with neon benders; shoemakers with silversmiths; potters with orrery-makers; stonemasons with weavers; embroiderers with basket-makers – and a myriad other craft traditions. This book aims to beat the drum for craft, waking people up to the fact that they need to support the country's rich seam of incredible craftspeople and so encourage new generations to master the skills needed to preserve and continue craft traditions. Craft Britain proves that craftsmanship in Britain is neither dying nor dead, but is a continuing and exciting exploration of process, materials and ideas spanning architecture, interiors, fashion, art and design.
